Today, I will share with you the skills of making steamed dumplings that are fragrant and soft, even if they are cold, they will not harden. In fact, all this is in the skin, so this is actually the main reason why many people have hard and dry skin. Let's share the practice of dumpling skin today. Students who want to show their skills at home must come and see!
First, dumpling skin
For dumpling wrappers, the main reason is that the noodles didn't wake up well. I believe that students who have been in the kitchen all the year round know that noodles are divided into dead noodles and fried noodles. For steamed dumplings, noodles can't die, and they can't be overcooked, because although they are called steamed dumplings, they are not steamed buns, so naturally they can't be used as skins!
There is a boundary between dough and dead dough. Generally speaking, don't use cold water directly when mixing noodles. In that case, the dough won't be loose enough to come out. When kneading dough, it is best to choose boiling water. Prepare it in front of the dough, first add flour, then pour boiling water bit by bit, and stir it into a flocculent shape with chopsticks. When the noodles are hot and the water is not hot, knead them into dough by hand, and do not put yeast powder.
Second, dumpling stuffing.
When wrapping jiaozi, just put some favorite ingredients normally. Don't try to choose some special ingredients. It's best to pack jiaozi fillings, such as leek eggs and celery meat, which can be paired with vegetarian dishes, which is healthier, but this is not immutable. Because steamed dumplings need steamed dumplings, try not to choose more soup, otherwise it will become steamed buns or soup buns.
Third, cooking skills.
1, steamed dumpling skin is not dry or hard. The key method is to knead dough with boiling water to soften gluten and reduce the hardness of flour. In this case, it will be soft, even if it is left in the kitchen for a long time, it will not dry hard. This is actually the secret why steamed dumplings in many restaurants will not be hard from morning to afternoon ~
2, noodles must be placed for a period of time after blending, it is best to choose to put them in a basin sealed with plastic wrap for about 20 minutes, so that noodles can be fully made, so that noodles can be better and softer, which is the most critical point!
3. Be sure to make sure that the ingredients don't come out of water, because many times people will put some materials with high moisture in the stuffing, and in the process of steaming, the skin will explode or steamed dumplings will become soup dumplings!
